2 year anniversary

Well it has been 2 years since my gastric bypass surgery was done.I had it done May 16Th of 2007 At Grinnell Iowa @ Grinnell Regional  Medical Center. I lost a total of 146 pounds i stopped loosing at 126 and I have gained some of it back but that is  all part of the process. I have not changed in clothes sizes by having to get bigger size clothes.I 'm still wearing a size 10 in women's jeans and size med. is shirts.  I still get cold very easy and have to wear sweat shirts and sweat pants in the house all year around..I have to wear layers when i go outside.. i have not fat at all on my body not even in the butt area. it is skin and bones .I have lost a few rings sizes downwards i had to get a new wedding ring cause the old one was to loose on finger.I have had to buy smaller size gloves cause hands are smaller in size.  I have had to size down my ball caps i wear to smaller size. The pouch still controls the body .meaning if i eat or try some food it doesn't like it lets me know it by doing a dump on me . I use Maalox sometimes to help calm down the pouch. which is great stuff to use. the Liquid in the bottle with the Purple label. Still have a issue with peanut butter pouch does like it and makes me sick must be the bad fats or the oil of the peanuts. I started walk 3 miles a day again to help fell better and to get back in some kind of better shape besides  looking like a Sherpa dog  with all the extra loose skin i have.i have not been sick at all with cold or the flu or any UTI's since i have had the surgery. I never lost any of my hair at all, I kepted it all and it grows fine .I take my Centrum Chewable vitamin every day I had to change to it cause the other vitiamn i was on was not dissolving  so i got no benefit from it.I 'm still on my drinking and eatting schedule that i started 2 years ago and it works fine for me.I still have to watch what kinds of food i eat . i eat nothing with coating on it such as meats.I eat no beef meat at all. i eat chicken fish and turkey meats. no potato chips junk foods. i eat alot of canned fruit that is low in syrup or sugar and drain the juice or syrup off of it.I still watch my salt in take and drain canned veggie the water off them & rinse them in tap water and cook them in tap water or steam them.I can eat apples as long as i wash them and peel the skin off of it.and cut them into small pieces.I 'm not sorry i had this surgery done it saved my life.And so did Dr.Stephen Sundberg  who did the surgery.I 'm schedule to see Dr.Sundberg yearly now since i 'm doing so well and behaving myself  with my diet.I feel better then i have in years and i'm sleep alot better too.
